  Updated Game List

  I updated my collected game list with games that I actually own. A lot of the ones I had on there before I did own, but some were there just for a specific emblem.
  
  I decided to start fresh with just my Xbox 360 games. Later I will add my DS and PSP games. I don't really want to venture into the last generation of platforms because the list will look like it did before. I'd rather have a nice and clean looking list of games rather than a cluster of games that takes forever to search through and 3/4 of them are horrible. In my mind, the change was needed.
  
  I will also be updating my ratings list soon as well. I gave nearly every game I wanted a 1.0 just for the Way Harsh emblem. It looked pretty. I had to have it. Now though, I really don't mind. So with some time I will begin to take those away and start fresh with what I really think about games. Most of those I reviewed deserve much better. Don't ask me how Lost Odysssey got there with a 9.5. Mind you, it will be edited and taken down a few notches.
  
  Thank you for reading and I hope to see you all on the boards.

  The Midnight Release

  Last week around this time I was going crazy becuase I knew that Modern Warfare 2 was only hours away. Today, just a week later, I'm going crazy because Left 4 Dead 2 and Assassins Creed 2 are also just hours away. I'll be heading to the midnight release tonight around 10:30 to wait in line.

  Now I am unsure if you all know or not but Assassins Creed (despite reviews) has been my favorite game on the Xbox 360. That alone should explain how excited I am for Assassins Creed 2. I'm very anxious to pick up the story with Ezio and embark on my assassination journey.

  Left 4 Dead 2 has got me almost equally excited due to the magnificent multiplayer. I look forward to playing with my friends online dodging jockeys, avoiding acid from the spitters, and blasting down chargers. Feel free to join me if you are picking up the game tonight as well.

  That is all for now, have fun tonight if you are also picking up these two great games. Be safe, have fun, and kick some decaying zombie ass!

  I can has Warfare?

  After spending a few days with it, the first two sleepless, I can officially say that I love the game. A lot. One might ask, is Modern Warfare 2 better than the first? To put it simply, Yes. I do find myself getting more attracted to this game more so than I did the first one.
  
  
  Sadly, the story seems to be only a little bit longer than the first. However, with all of the first person shooters that I play (you too Gamespot with your crappy 9.0) it is almost expected. The story is great and has a few moments when you just want to question whether or not you should have done that or not. No spoilers though. It should be experienced first hand.

  Multiplayer is obviously some of the best out there. I have a lot of fun with the online. They took the first games multiplayer and amped it up. New killstreaks, new customization options...new everything. All the challenges have been modified from the first game and honestly, it is for the better. A lot more work goes into it and I can't be more happy. Gives me something extra to do without fear of running out of tasks.

  All in all this game could possibly be best game of the year. I'll tell you whether it is or not come next Friday once I've had my chance to play Left 4 Dead 2 and Assassins Creed 2.

  Thank you Infinity Ward for the great game, and thank you all for reading.
